The recipe for Cold Rice Salad was given to me by my friend, Kathryn (the one with the backyard vineyard!), years ago after she brought me some to eat at school one day. It became a tradition that, after one of us would make the salad for our family, we would bring the leftovers to school to share. Cold Rice Salad is one of those dishes that you either LOVE or don’t want to even try. It has something to do with the marinated artichokes that are a dominant ingredient. In our family, my son-in-law and I are passionate about this recipe- the others, well, not so much.
Tomorrow we are attending a reunion of the Rapunzel families (with children and grandchildren)- and bringing Cold Rice Salad. Caitlin is making it today, although she will most likely not be eating it.

Love the composition; the angle of the spoon, the knife, and Caity’s left hand all parallel. Very nice. Plus it sounds yummy!
your composition and subject matter are wonderful!
